Addition Operator (BrowsePath)

Create a new browse path by appending a browse name to the end of the given browse path.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
<NotNullAttribute()>
Public Operator +( _
   ByVal browsePath As BrowsePath, _
   ByVal name As String _
) As BrowsePath

'Usage

[NotNull()]
public BrowsePath operator +( 
   BrowsePath browsePath,
   string name
)

[NotNull()]
public:
BrowsePath^ operator +( 
   BrowsePath^ browsePath,
   String^ name
)

Parameters

browsePath

The browse path.

Because the BrowsePath has an implicit conversion from System.String, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (containing an absolute browse path to be parsed) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding browse path object will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the FromString static method instead. CAUTION: Parsing the browse path can throw OpcLabs.BaseLib.Navigation.Parsing.BrowsePathFormatException.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

name

The browse name to be appended to the browse path.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Return Value

Returns the appended browse path.

This method never returns null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
